I'd have to agree with Hal about the grid.  I guess 
keeping in mind that it is an overview, the left side 
probably doesn't need all the detail you (Tobi) added 
in.  Is it possible to just display the 0 (which it 
always seems to do) and a label on the last hash?  
IOW, if the median RTT runs between 70 and 83 ms, the 
number at the top of the graph would be 80 ms, 
realizing that the median RTT goes above that 80 ms 
(to at least 83 ms) at least once in the overview 
period.

Make sense?

Just some observations on 99.12, and the new overview. If a graph
scales to 100ms, the grid is labeled every 20ms. This is very
readable. At 80ms, they are every 10ms, and I had to increase the
overall height, or else the fonts were stepping on each other. Not a
big deal, and maybe depends on the font/browser. Also, it looks like
the grid changes below 40 (or is it 50), where there is a horizontal
line at every 2ms. This looks really 'busy' to me. The effect is good
where the max scale is only 10 or 20 ms, but is distracting at 40. 
Just minor cosmetic nits :) .02

I like the idea of user definable colors too.
